This is from the Australia Institute (http://www.tai.org.au/), no idea
about their credibility, but check out their website, there's plenty
of detail.

Except of interest from the media release:
"The results show that the proportion of Australians who
indicate they are totally satisfied with life overall declines as
income increases; 21 per cent
of those in the lowest income group say they are totally satisfied
while only 13 per cent of
those in the highest income group feel the same way. Overall life
satisfaction is little
affected by differences in wealth."
